INP will not nominate Sentsov detained sailors, the Hero of Ukraine

Institute of naramata does not intend to initiate the procedure of awarding the title of Hero of Ukraine Director Oleg Sentsov and detained in the Azov sailors.

The Institute of national remembrance did not intend to initiate the procedure of awarding the title of Hero of Ukraine to the Ukrainian Director Oleg Sentsova, as well as detainees in the Kerch Strait sailors, since it is a discredited title. This was stated by the Director of INP Vladimir vyatrovich, said on Friday, December 7, UNN.

“No, we will not” – said vyatrovich, responding to a question.

According to him, the title of Hero of Ukraine is not the reward that should become a “national symbol of a certain higher respect for those people who live for the sake of Ukraine”.

“It (the title of Hero of Ukraine – ed.) has been greatly compromised a large number of random awards to those people who are openly opposed to the Ukrainian state. We should be talking about some other awards that could qualify for the status of the highest state awards. Moreover, the title of Hero of Ukraine is a carbon copy of the Russian title of Hero of the Soviet Union”, – said the Director of the Institute of naramata.

Earlier in the Verkhovna Rada registered the bill on the return of the title of Hero of Ukraine (posthumously), Stepan Bandera.

Also, the Prosecutor General Yuri Lutsenko declared that the title of Hero of Ukraine is post-Soviet in essence and form, and have long had to make a decision about the end of his action.

Recall that in June 2016 the official website of the President of the citizens have registered an e-petition, which the Ukrainians are asking Poroshenko to deprive the people’s Deputy Nadezhda Savchenko the title of Hero of Ukraine.
